Face-Off Classic fast approaching

February 28th, 2008 by Bob Chavez

Just two days are left before the first whistle of the 2008 Face-Off Classic in Baltimore and judging by ticket sales, it’s gonna be THE place to be on Saturday.

The Konica Minolta Face-Off Classic presented by The Baltimore Sun is set for Saturday. Virginia (3-0) plays Syracuse (2-0) at noon, followed by Johns Hopkins (1-0) against Princeton (1-0) at 2:30. At least 14,000 tickets have been sold already for this incredible double-header. The tradition and excellence related to all four programs on the bill are common knowledge but for those of you who can’t get enough, check out the pile of stories, videos and previews over at InsideLacrosse.com to get you ready for the weekend.

And in case you’re wondering what to wear, bundle up. Sun is in the forecast, but temps are supposed to be in the mid 40s.

Tickets range from $10 (for groups) to $15 to $25. Order them today at faceoffclassic.com, Ticketmaster, or call the Baltimore Ravens box office at (410) 261-RAVE.
